Construction walls are now up around the Disney Outfitters store at Disney's Animal Kingdom as construction work begins.

The parks main merchandise location will be expanding out towards the former tip board area and the Isle of Java coffee kiosk, providing more retail space ahead of the upcoming closure of Creature Comforts. It is expected that Creature Comforts will become home to the park's Starbucks location.

Also part of the expansion will be a new home for the Cotton Top Tamarins.
